Long Press to Go Between 2 CC Sends

Hello,

This is hard to word without sounding confusing.

I want to toggle an effect block on the Helix with a PRESS(easy, right?).

Then on that same preset, I want to be able to toggle back and forth a 2nd effect block using long presses without affecting the Preset Toggle.

Press sends CC Num:23 Val:126
Press sends CC Num:23 Val:1
Long Press sends CC Num:24 Val:1
Long Press sends CC Num:24 Val:126

The long press doesn’t affect the Values CC Num:23 or the colors/toggle state.

Is this possible?

Thanks,

Jason

You’ll just need to change Press to Release instead, because Long Press will also trigger a Press action.

Hi, it’s not possible. You could use ‘release’ (instead of press) + ‘toggle preset’ (instead of toggle mode) to cover your press actions. You’d have to replace one of your ‘long press’ actions with a different action (double tap for example). That way you’d toggle the preset with ‘release’ and could still send two differen’t messages with ‘long press’ and ‘double tap’.
Alternatively you could set up a cc scroll counter with a range of 63 to 64 that triggers with a ‘long press’.

I often have problems with “press” actions for a particular effect, for example boss od-200 and long press actions for in this same preset, allowing me to turn my walrus audio M1 on or off.
“Long press” works but apparently “long press” also does a “press”, so there is a conflict, which I don’t want.
I read (it’s always difficult to translate for me as I’m French) that apparently “release” could be the solution?
But how does it work? For release, isn’t there necessarily a press with it? I admit that I have not yet fully understood this whole strategy.

The table in this explains how actions work together: Action Type List

Basically, use a Release to trigger (for example) turning a pedal on and off and use Long Press to do other stuff like change banks or whatever. That’s how it’s normally done!

What means EG?
So you turn your effects on and off with Release?

Sorry… “eg” just means “for example”

Thanks for the list , i will looking at this tomorrow
